Some years ago my company, Liberation Graphics, printed up some posters for the Sandinistas (they were in power and controlled the embassy here in the US).

I am the archivist of the Palestine Poster Project Archives (and I'm Irish too!) I am writing to learn if you can send me ten copies of the above DAWC poster. I am attaching a brief text explaining why we are asking for printed/on-paper posters. If you have a clean jpeg of this poster (which was originally created by Granate Sosnoff for Jewish Voices of Peace in San Francisco) that would be lovely to receive as well. I will send a copy to Granate...she will love it. Send us any/all other posters/poster jpegs and we will add them all the the PPPA with your links. We are happy to pay for postage/shipping. in solidarity, Dan Walsh ----- Why We Ask For Print Copies of Posters The PPPA asks for printed copies of posters for a number of reasons, including to: 1) Place copies in major museums, university collections, national archives and other art preservation and cultural heritage sites 2) Legitimate the genre 3) Validate, for research purposes, that the poster has been printed 4) Preservation/Conservation The PPPA regularly presents duplicate copies of its Palestine posters to: Georgetown University’s Special Collections Library; the Library of Congress; the Middle East Library at Columbia University and a host of other institutions. The PPPA has also exchanged posters with the Jafet Library at the American University of Beirut, the International Institute of Social History in Amsterdam and the Museum of Design Zurich. We are seeking to expand the universe of institutions that house/exhibit Palestine posters and if you know of any that might be interested please let us know via the Contact form at the PPPA site. > On Aug 3, 2011, at 8:33 AM, Ann@sandinos.com wrote: > > Hello Dan, > > I don't have a copy of that poster,but I will forward your email to the guys who organised the gig and hopefully they can help ,good luck, > > Ann > > On 01 August 2011 at 21:10 Dan Walsh wrote: > > > > > http://www.palestineposterproject.org/poster/rock-the-casbah > > > Hello Ann, > > > I am the archivist of the PPPA and I am writing about the above poster from a fund-raiser at Sandino's in 2009. > > > > > > Do you have any copies left? If yes, would you consider sending them to us?
